Although it dates from the 1940s, chub packaging remains a favorite for pumpable products such as ground beef, ground turkey, sausage, chorizo, salami, taco meat and pet food.
What’s not to like about the product-filled film tube with clips on either end? The cylindrical package combines economy, convenience and shelf life in a case-ready format. Significantly lighter in weight than tray-based packaging, the chub reduces packaging material and transportation costs. As a source-reduced, lightweight package it also scores points for sustainability.
